Negative Space

That's our theme this week for Photo Art Friday.  While I do understand the concept with regard to art, I was hard pressed to find an image I thought fit it.  
I did, however, like the spaces in and around the driftwood and what
appear to be bamboo stalks in this display.   I also like the simplicity of it.  I used the gradient map with special effects......thank you, Bonnie.
I then applied Bonnie's  "quartz" texture.  It looks decidedly different from the original.
Here is the original
You will really see many different interpretations of  this week's theme if you 
hop on over to Bonnie's site
Have a lovely week!

very well done.

Oh my goodness this is so delightful. The original is wonderful but the edit transforms this into a piece of art. It's almost other-worldly.

So different and both so beautiful, Marilyn. Just love the lines of that piece of driftwood especially against the white/grey background. Thank you for sharing your artwork with Photo Art Friday.
